Samurai Jeans

[LC_Miey]

ss'up Chris, hows it going??

the fit is spot on, they stacks would definitely look better once the top block loosen up.great pickup!

Is all of the stitching on the S5000BKB navy blue or black? Looks different in each set of photos

[kit99bar]

Looks blue, I'm down for a pair pending measurements

[beautiful_FrEaK]

@theotherchrislewis: great fit there!

about the S5000BKB. It uses navy thread all over. It's the S5000 cut so I think your usual S5000 size will work. They've produced less than 200 pairs

[Gilangaditya]

have been 9 month ++

[hrs123]

my samurai s710vx idc11 about 1 month, no wash..

any opinion would be appreciate, cheers

[thecolosseum]

were do you get these?looks nice.

[Planetarium]

Looks like a great start. I'm super jealous of the hidden arcs.

[kit99bar]

the all-black black shadows will have hidden arcs too right? another reason to get a pair

[mitchL]

correct me If I am wrong but, I think the all black black shadows have black stitching and the black shadows with the orange stitching have hidden arcs.

Samurai made special jeans for contest in my country (Indonesia)

thx mate

[ranonranonarat]

the hidden arcs are a nice touch.

[Satya]

Haris, you did cycling on those? the saddle fade looks quite intense for a month

[jaz13]

I have always been curious does Samurai source denim from other mills or do they have their own operations.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

AFAIK, they source the denim from other mills

[hrs123]

Haris, you did cycling on those? the saddle fade looks quite intense for a month

yap 2 times since the contest began

not really quite intense, indoor version

How about the cotton? Any info especially for their signature 0 Denim.

Looks like a great start. I'm super jealous of the hidden arcs.

Personally can't stand hidden arcs... shit fades too fast and become too noticeable after a year or so... removed my arcs on my original 710BK's.

[Planetarium]

Anybody have a pair of S8000JX-F? I've been looking around and haven't seen any fit or wear examples.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

well the S8000 is very unpopular along Samurai wearers on here. The denim is also used on one side of the S500JX-LR. You can check the fading potential there.

[Planetarium]

That's odd, from the official measurements it seems pretty much like the s5000 cut with different details. I'll check the JX-LR. thanks.

[thecolosseum]

Is there any models sold in the USA that have hidden arcs with indigo denim?

[Planetarium]

^^ Nope, the USA model is sold out at Blue in Green. The 710vx with the hidden arcs was only for an Indonesian contest.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

there were also two other models in indigo..but also sold out long ago

The s8000jx-n should be pretty much the same, except a few details. It has an higher back rise and a bit more room in the thighs compared to my s5000vx.

I would say its more an vintage cut.

[whozdrew?]

What other models come with the cinch back?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

S8000 series

S634

S526

S7000

and the USA model

maybe some other collabs

[jonsc]

I felt that my Blue Shadows had a bit more shrinkage in them, so I gave them a hot second soak. I only wore them 10 since the first presoak.

Don't be afraid to presoak your jeans twice guys, they hardly lose indigo and Samurais have a lot of it.

I really like the fit now, really shrunk a lot below the knee.

[BrownMetallic]

approx 6mos effective wear :: around soak x5 + washed cold x1 :: more like Leepro-styled [since they're not even LHT], than actual Leepro, but it's the thought that counts_ i guess. had started them about a yr ago, had to take the backseat for my other stuff_ concurrently, back on the saddle, as with the 105. .

[everyinchofgod]

S710xx, 9 months, 7.5 months wear, 2 washes. Just getting started...
